Comics and other graphic narratives powerfully represent embodied experiences that are difficult to express in language. A group of authors from various countries and disciplines explore the unique capacity of graphic narratives to represent human embodiment as well as the relation of human bodies to the worlds they inhabit. Using works from illustrated scientific texts to contemporary comics across national traditions, we discover how the graphic narrative can shed new light on everyday experiences. Essays examine topics that are easily recognized as anchored in the body as well as experiences like migration and concepts like environmental degradation and compassion that emanate from or impact on our embodied states. Graphic Embodiments is of interest to scholars and students across various interdisciplinary fields including comics studies, gender and sexuality studies, visual and cultural studies, disability studies and health and medical humanities.

Show Me Where It Hurts written by Monica Chiu and has been published by Penn State Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2023-12-12 with Social Science categories.
In Show Me Where It Hurts, Monica Chiu argues that graphic pathography—long-form comics by and about subjects who suffer from disease or are impaired—re-vitalizes and re-visions various negatively affected corporeal states through hand-drawn images. By the body and for the body, the medium is subversive and reparative, and it stands in contradistinction to clinical accounts of illness that tend to disembody or objectify the subject. Employing affect theory, spatial theory, vital materialism, and approaches from race and ethnic studies, women and gender studies, disability studies, and comics studies, Chiu provides readings of recently published graphic pathography. Chiu argues that these kinds of subjective graphic stories, by virtue of their narrative and descriptive strengths, provide a form of resistance to the authoritative voice of biomedicine and serve as a tool to foster important change in the face of social and economic inequities when it comes to questions of health and healthcare. Show Me Where It Hurts reads what already has been manifested on the comics page and invites more of what demands expression. Pathbreaking and provocative, this book will appeal to scholars and students of the medical humanities, comics studies, race and ethnic studies, disability studies, and women and gender studies.

This book is a concise but comprehensive introduction to the field of literary neurodiversity studies, a growing approach to literary criticism that has emerged in the past decade. Its three parts are designed to: 1) introduce readers both to the general concept of neurodiversity and to current outlooks, approaches, and key scholarship from literary neurodiversity studies; 2) to present one possible vision of the future of literary neurodiversity studies, by offering an argument about how the field might further entwine with more general research on literary cognition, literary emotion, and literary sensation; and 3) to model for readers how one might perform a neurological reading of a literary text, by offering a sustained analysis of Shakespeare’s Othello. It also contains an extensive bibliography of existing scholarship from literary neurodiversity studies, which will provide an indispensable resource for new and experienced researchers in the field.

Help Available for Labelling Your Drawings PATENT DRAWING LABELLING Now that you have had your patent drawings completed by the patent illustrator, the next step is to label your drawing. "Label the drawing? What is that?" I get this from inventors all the time. In this chapter we will discuss what is the purpose of adding reference lines and numbers on a drawing, and how a well labeled drawing can help you write a good provisional patent specification. We will also show you how to label your drawing yourself. Why Label Your Drawing? Labelling the drawing is one of the most important part of preparing your patent application. Many inventors do not know why the drawings are labelled. When you send your invention document to the patent office, you will not be there to explain the details of your invention, you will not be able to pull your invention apart and explain how things will work. The drawing, the reference numbers and your written explanation will do the explaining for you. Therefore, what you explain is very important. Think about it like this: Provisional and Non-Provisional Patent drawings are created to be explained. The explanation of the invention is in the drawing. The drawings can only be explained properly by use of reference numbers and lines. The reference numbers are names of parts of the invention and the reference lines can be compared to your finger pointing to the parts you are explaining. If the drawing is not properly labelled it cannot be explained properly. If the drawing is not explained properly the strength of the invention will be weak. After a drawing is filed, you cannot come back to explain something new or something you forgot to mention. How to make sure your drawing is properly labeled?What if you don't know how to label a drawing? Many inventors offer to pay us to simply help label their drawings. Labelling the drawings can be very expensive because it takes time and good arrangement. Fortunately for you, you don't have to worry. The book will guide you in every step of the way. It explains the details of labelling your own drawing in an easy to follow way. If you still feel you will need help after reading this book, you can always ask the author of the book at ASCADEX for assistance. Let's begin by first pointing out the wrong way to label a drawing. Knowing the wrong way and why it is wrong will help you understand how to label your drawings the right way. When preparing their application, both the inventor and the patent attorney rely on the patent illustrator for good drawings that will bring out the invention. The difference between the two is that the attorney will label his drawing better than the inventor would, which will lead to better explanation on the part of the patent attorney. Take for example the example drawing (EX-1) shown in this book. As a patent illustrator, as soon as I learn that an inventor will be preparing his own application I usually make it my personal responsibility to guide them on the right path. I will try my best to produce the best drawing for my inventor clients with the hope that like the patent attorney, they would know how to label the drawings after it is completed. I sometimes include extra drawings without charge that I think they may need to help make their application stronger. After preparing all the wonderful drawings and emailed them to the inventor as shown in example drawing (EX-1) to be labelled, some inventors may label their drawing like what is shown in image (EX-2) below.

Strategic Interventions In Mental Health Rhetoric written by Lisa Melonçon and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2022-02-06 with Language Arts & Disciplines categories.
Offering rhetorically informed strategic interventions, this innovative collection moves beyond critiques of mental health issues, problems, and care. With sections that focus on methodological, cultural and legal, and pedagogical interventions, readers will find an engaging discussion of a discrete mental health phenomenon as well as a clear interventional takeaway in each chapter. Contributors make use of critical discourse analyses, ethnographic inquiries, autoethnographic inquiries, case studies, and textual analyses to engage such mental health research topics as postpartum depression among Chinese mothers; insanity pleas; anosognosia; issues of intimacy, access, and embodiment in research projects; community support groups; Black mental health; women in Alcoholics Anonymous; and mental health in faculty workshops and university online health tools. The authors and editors create scholarship on mental health that explicitly builds productive methodological, theoretical, and practical bridges among scholars and teachers in the various specialties of writing and communication. This collection will interest scholars, students, and practitioners in health and medical humanities; rhetoric of health and medicine; health communication; medical anthropology; scientific and technical communication; disability studies; and rhetorical studies generally.

The Art of Dying: 21st Century Depictions of Death and Dying examines how contemporary media platforms are used to produce creative accounts, responses and reflections on the course of dying, death and grief. Outside the public performance of grief at funerals, grief can strike in anticipation of a loss, or it can endure, continuing to interject itself and interrupt a permanently changed life. This book examines the particular affordances possessed by various contemporary creative forms and platforms that capture and illuminate different aspects of the phenomenology of dying and grief. It explores the subversive and unguarded nature of stand-up comedy, the temporal and spatial inventiveness of graphic novels, the creative constructions of documentary filmmaking, the narrative voice of young adult literature, the realism of documentary theatre, alongside more ubiquitous media such as social media, television and games. This book is testament to the power of creative expression to elicit vicarious grief and sharpen our awareness of death.
